    So would just running straight distilled water be best for this coolant system? Also should I use a rust remover like thermocure to take any rust out before keeping the distilled water in it?

    Dang thats crazy, for my l175 when I fill that side bolt it always goes down when filled with oil.... so then grease is the way to go instead? Or should I look into tearing it open instead?
